Interesting what you say about this, I hadn't noticed that little disc surrounding the power button, it does look like it needs to be taken care of when inserting the phone in a slip case etc. I do wish there was an easier button to press each time you want the phone on from standyby, same goes for the right hand side volume slider, not too easy to use especially if you have a certain type of flipcase cover.
I wish you luck returning the phone.
